This article reports on the reaction of 2-hetaryl-2-(furanyl-2-ylidene)acetonitriles with aromatic amines as N-nucleophiles. 2-Hetaryl-2-(furanyl-2-ylidene)acetonitriles represent versatile building blocks in syntheses of ω-(N-aryl)alkyl substituted heterocycles due to the presence of 1,3-bielectrophilic acrylonitrile fragment functionalized with unsaturated heterocyclic ring and nucleophilic azaheterocyclic moiety. The carbonyl group masked within the N-arylpyrrolidinylidene fragment which undergoes a ring opening through the reaction with nucleophiles. So, a method for the synthesis of 2-hetaryl-6-hydroxy-3-(arylamino)hex-2-enenitriles and 2-hetaryl-2-(N-arylpyrrolidin-2-ylidene)acetonitriles has been developed by us. The proposed scheme is based on the available reagents using. As a result of Michael addition, the aromatic amines to 2-hetaryl-2-(furanyl-2-ylidene)acetonitriles followed by ring transformations has formed two types of products, depending on the reaction conditions. The reaction of substituted furanylylideneacetonitriles with aromatic amines proceeds in good to high yields affording the corresponding 3-(arylamino)hex-2-enenitriles and 2-(N-arylpyrrolidin-2-ylidene)acetonitriles derivatives. The stereochemistry of the ring-opening reaction follows the rules of a classical SN2 mechanism. The resulting linear products can be cyclized to 2-hetaryl-2-(furanyl-2-ylidene)acetonitriles in high yields by treatment with the catalytic amount of acid or the equimolar amount of aromatic amines. Under these conditions 2-hetaryl-6-hydroxy-3-(arylamino)hex-2-enenitriles arising from reaction gives the ring closure. Since both ring-opening and cyclisation occur with fixed stereochemistry the reaction appears a valuable modification to the preparation of acetonitriles derivatives.

A straightforward chiral pool synthesis for the first fluorinated calystegin is described. Key steps of this synthesis include an ultrasound-assisted Zn-mediated tandem ring opening reaction followed by a Grubbs’ catalyst-mediated ring closure metathesis reaction. The target compound is a selective and competitive inhibitor for a β -glycosidase.

Fumaratotriazoline (1) and amidotriazoline (3) undergo thermal first-order transformations in solution at 65 °C. The former affords the isomeric pyrrole 5 and its hydrolysis product 6. A mechanism involving opening of the initial five-membered ring to form 8, followed by closure to a new five-membered ring (9), is proposed. Amidotriazoline (3) loses N2 on heating to form 19. The experimental results are best accommodated in terms of a novel mechanism involving an electrocyclic ring closure, a [3 + 2] cycloreversion to form an ylide, a sigmatropic rearrangement of the ylide, and, finally, an electrocyclic ring-opening reaction.

Tunable aryl imidazolium ionic liquids acting as Brønsted acid ionic liquids were found to be efficient catalysts for per-O-acetylation and reductive ring opening of benzylidene acetals. This method requires a truly catalytic amount of the least expensive available ionic liquids that are water-stable and reusable and also stable at room temperature. The reactions were obtained in one hour with good to excellent yields. These reactions can form C−O and C−H bonds with a high atom economy. Furthermore, the ionic liquid is an anomeric selective catalyst in per-O-acetylation and reductive ring opening of benzylidene acetals of sugar moieties.

Asymmetric ring-opening reactions of meso-epoxides by aromatic amines were achieved by using some chiral metal–organic frameworks. The corresponding β-amino alcohols were obtained with good yields and enantioselectivities (up to 97% ee).

Open chain intermediates from the ring-opening reaction of aqueous sodium deuteroxide (2 mol) with 2-chloro-5-nitropyridine (1 mol) and 2-chloro-3-nitropyridine (1 mol) were isolated. These intermediates were purified, analyzed for elemental composition, and characterized by various spectrophotometric techniques. The intermediate formed from 2-chloro-5-nitropyridine and two equivalents of deuteroxide ion reacts with additional deuteroxide in D2O in various polar solvents to reclose the pyridine ring. The kinetics of the ring closure reaction are reported and are supplemented with observations of salt and solvent effects upon the rate of closure. In addition, a mechanism for the ring closure is presented. The intermediate formed from 2-chloro-3-nitropyridine did not undergo a similar ring closure when reacted with additional deuteroxide, but instead formed various decomposition products. A reason for the failure of this ring closure is suggested.
